Wonder what the Rangers could get for Perez & Calhoun..

Well, they don't have a top 100 prospect so might as well go after their top prospect, Kyle Muller. Lol

Scary to see
Hope he’s ok

Curious, what would y'all think about going after a guy like Joe Musgrove in the off-season, along with re-signing Perez?

Wouldn’t be against it if they’re paid like their career norms and not their free agent walk year.

Perez 3/$36
Musgrove 5/$110

Really wouldn’t even want to see that happen lol

In the offseason I would like to see us pursue the best pitcher who will sign here. Whether that is Perez, Musgrove or a better pitcher than either of them, I am fine with that.

I bet most ranger fans are sick of selling. After the offseason we just had, we need to continue to build this team up. I’d be in favor of making a trade to solidify the back of our rotation. There are ways To figure out if Perez really wants to stay or not probably.

If you trade Perez then you will need to find another #1. Nothing gained.

See how Ragans and White do by August 2nd.
Cole Winn too.
Could get back a pitcher in the deal too.

I would offer Perez an extension, if he doesn’t sign, trade him for sure.

Perez is proven. Those ^^ have a way to go.

That’s why I think we should offer him an extension.
If he doesn’t take an extension we should definitely trade him IMO. Not trading him would be bad for the future.

Have already said the same. But what if you trade perez and Calhoun as you ask'd above. You will have to aquire a replacement.

what did the darvish, Cole Hamels, and Gibson trades really net us?

can anyone point to something tangible from those deals that is helping us in the farm system and likely to help us at the major league level? To be totally honest with you, I was stoked about the Lynn trade, but have since cooled on that one as well.

tradimg established pitchers for prospects isn’t what it used to be.

Depends I guess, the Mark Texeira trade was nice. The Gallo trade was nice. The Gibson trade not so much.
It can go a lot of different ways I suppose

Pretty much every ranger fan unanimously agrees that the teixera trade and gallo trades were awesome, but those were position players.

I’ve yet to see a good trade where we give up a quality pitcher and bring back prospects who actually help us.

Other than the Darvish and Gibson trades, have the Rangers ever traded away a quality starting pitcher?

I’m not sure on the SP, but the Frank Francisco trade for Mike Napoli was one of my favorite

Even when they traded Darvish, his ERA was just over 4, so we couldn't get his true value.

The Gibson trade, like the Teixeira, trade have to be considered outliers. JD and Young just really messed that one up. We have to hope that is an outlier or we have no hope as an organization. Lol

Lance Lynn and we got Dunning and Weems in exchange
